CamRate Terms of Service

We are Camrate Limited ("CamRate") and these Terms of Service (the "Terms") govern the legal relationship between you and CamRate when you use our rating mobile application (the "App"). Our App offers a platform allowing you to share your personal opinion with others by rating places and things using CamRate's simple rating scale (the "Service"). The content that you create when using the App whether such content be submitted via the App as text, images, audio or otherwise is referred to in these Terms as "Content" (As further defined in Paragraph 9(a) below).

Background:These Terms govern the relationship between you and Camrate Limited (a private limited company incorporated in England and Wales with company number 08749457 with its registered office at 3th Floor, Chancery House,St Nicholas Way, Sutton SM1 1JB, UK.

Code of Conduct:The App is made available to you on the basis you use it to share your personal opinion with others by rating places and things. The App allows other users of the App (you and each such user being a "User") to respond to your personal opinion and continue the debate should they and other Users so wish. CamRate makes its App available for these purposes and does not permit the use of its App for any other purpose (including any illegal purpose). For this reason, CamRate has a code of conduct (see) (the "Code")that applies to your use of the App and CamRate reserves the right to end your use of the App and to remove your Content if CamRate believes you breach the Code. The Code forms part of these Terms. By agreeing to these Terms you agree to use the App in compliance with the Code of Conduct.

Privacy & Cookies Policy: The information CamRate collects from you and about individuals as a result of your use of the App and the ways in which CamRate uses this information is covered in CamRate's Privacy and Cookies Policy (see).The Privacy and Cookies Policy form part of these Terms. By agreeing to these Terms you consent to the collection, use and storage of your information as described in our Privacy & Cookies Policy.

The App and Monetisation: Whilst CamRate's publication of the App is driven by a desire to offer Users a platform to voice their personal opinion on places and things, CamRate publishes the App for its own commercial purposes. CamRate currently offers the App as a standalone application via an online store (such as Apple’s ‘App Store’, or Google’s ‘Google Play’ – each a ‘Platform’) and its current business model is to generate revenue from in-app advertising. CamRate's business model and the platform(s) on which the App is available may change requiring it to vary these Terms. If you disagree with these variations you can stop using the App and ask CamRate to remove your Content.

you have not previously been banned or blocked from using either our App or any relevant Platform;

Special Terms: In addition to these Terms, the Privacy and Cookie Policy, the Code and the Platform Terms, further special terms and conditions also apply to your use of the App, depending on how you access it.
